Americana are great pie eaters, or have
tho reputation of being such, any way.
For a great many yours the consumption
of these savory edibles has been looked
upon as one of our most distinguished
characteristics, and there in no doubt
that there is pood ground for thus belief,
for there ia no place on the globe where
the subject of pie making and pie eating
has received so much attention.
And when it comes to pie eating. New
York city is not behind the reet of the
Union, for it ia estimated that in this
city there are consumed daily not less
than 73,000 of these somewhat Indigest
ible dainties'
FROM WHENCE COME THKVf
But where do they all come from? is
question that is frequently asked.
The majority of them are manufactured
in small bakeries around town, but there
are several concerns, each of which is
kept goinR day and night, and produces ;
troiu ia.ut.iu to '.'O.uuu pies or all sizes
daily every day of the week, mounting
into millions in the course of a year.
S k reporter visited one of these immense
-Tf'i' factories. It is located on Sullivan
to be Of leet -h i a very desirable locality, it
Motixwould seem, but the interior was as neat
aa a pi a
It was surprising to see bow every
branch of the business was conducted.
Everything moved along with really au
tomatic precision.
The entire building is divided into sep
arate departments. In one department
the manufacture of mincemeat is carried
on by machinery; in another Die fruit is
prepared, while in a third the immense
quantity of dough that is used is made.
The fruit is peeled by machinery and cut
by hand.
In the room where the pies are made
there are several long tables at which sev
eral men stand.
The dough is brought to them in large
buckets holding a lout thirty pounds. A
lump is then put on the table and rolled
out, cut in small squares and laid on tin
plates. These plates are then handed
along to a man who stands ready, with
knife in hand, to shave off the ends of the
dough which hang over the outside of
the plates.
The plates are then placed in rows in a
wooden tray and taken to the fruit coun
ter to receive their "iusides." The men
at the fruit counter hold a large wooden
spoon in their hand, and as the tray comes
before them they 6upply each pan liber
ally with fruit or sauce, as the case may
be. The plates are then replaced on the
trays and carried to another table, where
they receive the top crust, after which
they are put on an elevator and sent to
the cellar, where they are baked.
There are a half score of ovens in this
place, each of which will hold 400 four
cent pies, or 126 fourteen cent pies. The
four cent pies are retailed at five cents
and the fourteen cent article sells for
twenty cents.
It requires two men to run an oven;
one man stands at the door of the oven
and directs his partner where to put the
next consignment. The man who places
the pies in the oven holds in his hands a
long, shovel like arrangement with a
handle fifteen or twenty feet long. The
pies are put on the above in couples and
are then put in to bake. J
This takes twenty minutes, and when
.finished the hot and juicy dainties are re
moved, put in cases and sent to the wag
ons. FOETY WAGONS HAL'UNQ PIES.
There are many other details connected
with the business that have not been
spoken of. For instance, in one depart
ment seven women are employed all day
long w ashing tin plates, which are dried
by an improved steam apparatus.
The busiest time around the building
ia at 3 o'clock, when the hands go to
work, lhere are not less than one hun
dred and ten people employed in the
factory. They work until 3 o'clock in
the afternoon, and then leave, only to
return at a corresponding hour the fol
lowing morning.
The drivers begin to g out on their
daily rounds at 4:30 o'clock In the morn
ing, and ail return by noon, for there is
no sale for pies in the afternoon. It re
quires thirty-five wagons to supply the
company's customers in New York, Jer
sey City and Brooklyn, and there are
five more wagons in Newark, for New
ark is also a great pie eating district
lhere is no doubt but that this is the
largest place of its kind in America, The
manufacture of pies is not confined to
any one size; there are small pies that
sell for 5 cents, medium size that bring
10 cents and the large size that sell for 20
cents. In addition an immense quantity
of "home made" pies, sold at 45 cents
each, are manufactured for the accom
modation of restaurant keepers.
There is every variety of pie, chief
of which are apple, mince, peach, plum,
lemon, cocoanut, rhubarb, pineapple and
custard. Berry pies are made when ber
ries are in season.

4,000 pounds of sugar, besides all the
fruit There is more fruit used in the
composition than anything else, and to
show bow much is used it is only neces
sary to say that twenty barrels of apples
are used every day. Although there are
owy about 15, WO or 20,000 of these pies
soiu uauy uie tactory could, if necessity
arose, produce 1)5,000 a day.
Cut taking the average sales per day,

tion (allowing six days to the week, for
no work is performed on (Sunday) 105,
000; the monthly 455,000, and the yearly
0,477,000 pies.

also on the Ores' It stage, owing to the
height of the platform where the per

theatres in this city are much better off
in thia respect than the older houses

veniences proposed in a new Ijondou

these details, but such are the general
impressions to be gathered from various
paragraphs which have appeared respect
ing the new place of amusement erected
by an eminent dramatist for a success
ful manager.
W e live in hope that one-half of these
agreeable attractions and sweet boons
may be realized, for the play going pub
lic has been long taught by hitter ex
perience not to expect too much. Even
in some places where the electric light
flourishes, the ventilation leaves much
to be desired. In fact, we are not auite
sure but that the gas "sunlight" of other
theatres does not greatly tend to purify
the air.
Sometimes, on winter nights, the thea
tres where concrete and iron are used in
stead of wood for partitions and seals,
strike a chill to the flesh and blood of
the auditors, who shiver and shake
where they ought to applaud with
warmth and enthusiasm. In time all
these raw defects of imperfect reforms
and all these lingering evils of the old
regime will disappear, and we hail ns a
sign of the millennium the crowning

folded up at theatres and will no longer

An instance of buried alive U reported
from Syracuse. For one such case which,
through extraodinary circumstances,
comes to light, it is onlv reasonable to
assume that there are many known only
to the all seeing ere and hidden from ail
human ken in the depths of an unvio
lated grave. Rare as are these evidences
of a second death, a thousand times more
terrible than the first, they are sufficient
to engender the earnest hope that some
means shall be reached whereby burial
before death shall be impossible. Either
some enactment whereby it would Ijc
cotne a penal offense to inter a body that
did not betray certain unmistakable evi
dence of absolute death, or some applica
tion of electrical appliance to thecotlin
and its contents. i
There are no mechanical difficulties in
the way to prevent electrical communi
cation between every recently buried
body and the office or residence of the
cemetery official or watchman. Nor i
it impossible to construct an electrical
appliance of such delicacy that the

Along the const of Maine there are
several places where xrpolse catching ia
:arried on extensively and affords the
principal means of support for many of
Ihe people living in those localities. Tho
Bay of Kutidy is an especially good fish
ing ground, and Indian Poach, bordering
jn the waters of tho Iwy is occupied the
vear round by whit. and Indians whodo
little else. For years the I'assamuquoddy
Indians have made a practice of camp
ing on the beach and applying them
selves assiduously to porKise luirpoou
ing and slutting The winter fish are
the fattest nnd give tho most oil; that is
the valuable vart of tho catch.
FROM "HANI) TO MOITH."
The largest ixiriioisoa are about seven
feet long, w ill girth live feet, weigh 800
pounds and over, and yield from six to
seven gallons of oil The blublier is an
inch or so thick In warm weather, but in
the winter double that. A fat lish'a blub
ber will weigh aUmt one hundred (hmiihIs.
The Indians do their work in much the
same way now as they did in early
years, tho most primitive methods pre
vailing In trying out the blubber the
appliances are of tho rudest kind The
tires are built among piles of stone, over
which iron pots are hung The blubber
is cut in small pieces and slowly melted

gallon Ihe U-st oil comes from the
jaws of the orpoise. The jaws are
bung up in the sun, nnd the oil droits
dow n into a vessel, each p ur producing
about one-half pint Watchmaker am)
others using a very tine oil take it in
preference to all oilier, and it commands
a big price. The blubber oil gives a good
light, and for years wan burned exclu
sively in the light houses along the coast.
In a good season an Indian will catch
nearly two hundred poriwises, each
yielding about three gallons of oil; but
most of them fall a good deal below this,
as they are not over partial to labor, and
as long as the returns of one catch will
last, w ill liiaf around the camp rather
than go out again. The custom is to get
a few gallons of oil, go to the nearest
market and sell it, then "rest" till forced
by necessity to make further exertions.
The iorpoisc's llcsh is much like pork
when cooked, and is a staple article of
food
HOW TI1EV AttS CAPTfRED.
The bravery, skill and endurance de
manded of the wrKiiso catchers in their
work is almost unknown to tho outside
world In the morning, when the men
are going "porNiMn , the women and
children turnout to see the canoes otl.
n uoai iias two men, ami wnen a
storm comes up w hile they are out, or
they are unusually late getting in, there
is great anxiety among those on shore.
It taken years of training to make a good

In calm weather I be blow ing of the por

is seldom a failure to make a sure shot,
but the lUli is sjieared to stop his floun

a couple of lingers in the blow hole and

this is easy, but when a high sea is run

"Our club, with tho dignity of twenty

"endeavor to appreciate the possibilities,
limitations and aims of the society of
Sorosis as a literary, artistic and social
body, and to keep time to the ideal of its

She added: "I Mie vo ill women's

was: "Ho that spareth the rod hateth his
